METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EVENT-BASED NETWORK ADMINISTRATION

摘要

A method and apparatus is described for monitoring, notification, and reporting of the status of a business site's infrastructure. The monitoring captures pertinent health and status information of hosts using a satellite system located locally to the hosts. This information serves as a basis for reports that the business site may generate about the hosts. Thresholds may be set on monitored parameters of a host and feed into an acknowledgment based notification process based on a set of escalation parameters that triggers alerts to persons designated by the business site. Real-time and historical of the infrastructure data reports may be generated. An infrastructure's assets may also be tracked.
